Specialized Epithelial Tissue are a class of epithelial tissues that have very specific and specialized functions and structures. This tissue is composed of cuboidal, columnar, ciliated columnar epithelial cells. These are following types:

Ciliated Specialized Epithelium

This tissue is composed of long, elongated columnar epithelial cells. Each cell bears numerous cilia at the free surface, i.e. known as brush border.

The surface of our body and internal organs is subjected to wear, tear and injury. To protect the inner tissues, the outer lining of the body and organs is covered by a specialized group of cells called epithelium.

Epithelial tissues can contain a single layer of cells (Simple Epithelium) or many layers(Stratified Epithelium).

When a stone is immersed in a bucket completely filled with water, some amount of water spill out of the bucket. The weight of water displaced (spilled) from the bucket can be explained by Archimedes principle.
